1. Describe the main idea, the CLAIM of Carr's essay? How do you know this?
2. Describe what Carr meant where he said, "Most of proprietors of commercial Internet have financial stake in collecting crumbs of data we leave behind as we flit from link to link - more crumbs, the better. Last thing these companies wish to motivate leisurely reading or slow, concentrated thought. It is in their economic interest to drive us to distraction."
3. Carr describes that people are always afraid of new technology - he uses Socrates as example - and how he might just be paranoid. Do you feel like we must be concerned about effects of Internet and the way we now learn and find information or is it just natural progression? Explain why or why not?
